How to change Stepmania's arrow speed mods

[Kagome]

Then you click on the skins folder instead of default.

Sorry for the bump, but I have some helpful info (OMG! OH NOES).

You don't have to live with a blank space in the options screen. To correct that little problem, open up languages\english.ini in your skin directory and find the "[OptionNames]" section. You'll notice several entries such as "1x=1x" and "C400=C400". Well, what you want to do is add an entry in the following format:

<name of the option as given in metrics.ini>=<how you want it to display on the screen>

For instance, if you added a speed mod using this line: "Speed,13=mod,32x;name,x32", you would put an entry in english.ini that looked like this: "x32=x32". It's pretty flexible; if you wanted it to show up as "PMPIYM" in the options screen, you'd use "x32=PMPIYM".

Hope this helps!

If you have SMMAX2 do you go into that folder, I'm asking because in the Metrics folder I can't find [ScreenOptionsMaster] or anything to do with speed mods

Edit: Nevermind...

If you run the game in fullscreen, you will not get those error dialogs.

You have to go to language and then english.ini and then ctrl+f, find C400 or whatever, and add blah=blah for whatever you added.

For instance, if I wanted to add C725, I would add it in metrics.ini (Speed,12=mod,C725;name,C725) and set the speed thing above that to 12, and then go to the folder called languages, select english.ini, find C400, and below that add C725=C725.

EDIT: Oh whoops, didn't notice that there were two pages, and that Spectere had already said this.

[super-smashman]

Well, since it has been bumped I may as well point out that cheesepotato has that error because there is a space after the 11 in speed,11.

[Mindfields]

I gots question:
How do you change the default BPM from 192 to a faster speed?
I tried opening up the dwi for 321 Stars, and easily found the BPM thingy, but when I edited it to a faster speed, it would only save as a text-file.
As of now, you have 3 ways to solve my problem:
1. Send me your edited DWI so that I eventually start bugging you for more edits.
2. Get me the program to edit dwis successfully.
3. Tell me how to do it with the StepMania Song Sync/Editor.
